Part of the H-Series of worm gear winches, the manually operated H-4600 worm gear was developed and patented by Beesley. Beesley held the patent for 19 years and still sells the original design. This winch is perfect for feed and nest lines, with a 5000 lb capacity. Beesley recommends a 2:1 breakdown on feed lines that weigh in excess of 1/2 the capacity of the winch. The vertical worm gear has durable heavy duty bushings and grease fittings to ensure this winch lasts for years under the harshest elements.
